Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 2: CAN’T CATCH ME (14)
Jockey: T Godden – Trainer: P Muscutt
CAN’T CATCH ME was her own worst enemy over 1400m last time as she over raced in the early stages. It must be noted that Edvige has come out and won again since. Her penultimate effort when finishing third over this distance was encouraging. She gets the blinkers fitted for the first time which should keep her mind on the task at hand. The daughter of Flower Alley can shed her maiden tag in this field.
Race 3: CAPTAIN ROCKET (3)
Jockey: S Veale – Trainer: D Drier
CAPTAIN ROCKET has produced two promising runs to date. He had to overcome a wide draw last time, lost a length leaving the start but the manner in which he finished off his race was encouraging. The son of Captain Of All is a progressive type and in this type of field, he should take a power of beating.

Race 4: ASARULUDU (8)
Jockey: R Venniker – Trainer: M Roberts
ASARULUDU has finished second in both his efforts to date. He stayed on at the finish over this distance on the polytrack last time, but found one too good in the form of Captain Catman. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. The son of William Longsword may be suited to the turf and he can go one better.
Race 5: CHELSEA BLUE (4)
Jockey: K de Melo – Trainer: D Howells
CHELSEA BLUE has produced three good efforts to date. She raced from a handy position over this trip at Hollywoodbets Greyville last time and stayed on to finish second. She was reported to be fatigued that night. The daughter of Canford Cliffs is having her first run on this course and from her good draw of four, she can go one better.
Value Bet For Today
Race 8: MAQUETTE (10)
Jockey: J Gates – Trainer: D Howells
MAQUETTE is better than her last start over 1200m at Hollywoodbets Greyville as the jockey reported something to be amiss. She has won twice and finished second three times from seven starts over this C&D. The daughter of Red Ray has dropped from a merit rating of 90 to 74. She takes a drop in class and if putting her best foot forward, she has the ability to win a race of this nature
